[Talk-GB] skobbler OSM bug backchannel

[Philipp Kandal]

Hi everybody,

just to add to Marcus comment, please find below the prio topics on which we are working on to improve the usefulness of the OSM bugs functionality which we have. We are very open for further suggestions.

Best regards,
Philipp

---- dev prios ---

1.)	Export to Google Earth (KML)
Once we have also the full route details (e.g. GPS trace, route suggested) it should be possible to export this via KML to e.g. Google Earth.


2.)	JOSM Plugin
OpenStreetBugs has a plugin for JOSM (the most popular OSM editor). If we would provide a compatible interface people could view the bugs directly in JOSM.
The Plugin is documented here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/OpenStreetBugs 

3.)	Notification when bug status changes
Logged in users should get a mail feedback (like a private message) when one of their reported bugs was changed.
In order to prevent spamming the users we should max. send one mail per day, and if more changes occur summarize them after 24 hours in one mail.

4.)	Bulk handling of bugs
It should be possible to jump back and forward within the selected bugs. 
There should be two options for "forward / backward": by reporting time (useful only for our internal QC who would fix bugs in bulk mode), by geography (the closest to the bug I have currently selected). Filters for bugtypes if set should of course remain available.

5.)	Bulk export of bugs
It should be possible to export the bugs via CSV as a full dump incl. the available details (except of course GPS traces and routes).
Also there should be a list on the webpage of all bugs, this would make bulk fixing easier. (Here also the detail pages would help a lot)
The webpage should be similar to a Jira result list.

6.)	Export to OpenStreetBugs
Once we have the quality of the bugs improved we should also be able to export the bugs to OpenStreetBugs

7.)	Filter: Show only bugs in certain geography
Most mappers only can fix map bugs in their proximity so they should be able to limit displayed bugs to e.g. a certain point and a 5/10/25/50 km radius around it. 
This would be especially useful with a "forward / backward" option as details in "bulk handling of bugs"
Additionally the export should be possible via GeoRSS so that you can subscribe to new bugs in your area.

We've included your suggestion into our roadmap. A proper GeoRSS feed should be implemented no later than end of June.

Well an obvious enhancement would be to allow people to subscribe to an 
RSS feed for a particular area.
